WOw you ladies are fast! .. and your blocks & finishing ideas are stunning! For so long I felt like I was the only one here working on it - tho I didn't start when this thread started. But Anael is always here as long as someone is working on it and posting it seems.. I've seen the notices about posts on here , but didn't have any idea until I read thru this morning the amount of activity going on - there's already a top coming together!!! I haven't touched my SBS since the beginning of the year - have the next couple blocks of scrappy fabrics picked out and the templates ready - just haven't gotten to it! The rest are still on on my design wall tho - I love watching the progress. I was 3 quilts deep over it this winter!! Got caught up in the Bonnie Hunter "On Ringo Lake" for the winter. Needed to design additional borders to make it a queen bed quilt, designed & pieced a back and it is now on my Tin Lizzie with one pass quilted. Also designed an additional border and am designing the pieced back for another Bonnie Hunter "Razzle Dazzle" I started a few years ago. Now that it has a home to go to it was time to finish it up for a nephews wedding present. Had to travel w/my Mom back to Florida for a family visit last week and hoping to get a plan in place to drive her home to Iowa end of April. Her hands are not working as well as she would like after breaking both her wrists last October and I'm thinking this may be her last year attempt to stay in her house by herself. We shall see. After our FLorida visit, my cousins have decided we need to plan a cousins reunion for 2019 - & we're going to include a celebration for my Mom's 90th birthday while we have family together... My youngest S28 was here for an impromptu visit between Hawaii and his next job in Mississippi right before I left & a couple days after we got back. Got home to a flooded studio which he helped my SO rip up the carpet (which can be salvaged, but the particle board underneath got wet enuf to swell and create little hills in my floor space.). So for right now I can't do any sewing for awhile and am going to have to do some major adjusting to keep my quilting pattern continuous after moving my 14 foot Tin Lizzie frame around to get to the carpet underneath. I'm retired and still can't get thru these projects as fast as you ladies. With my Mom here I am a bit limited to time in my studio during the week & typically spend the weekends w/the SO, but I do enjoy the process. We'll see if that changes when he retires this summer. He likes the idea of me getting to spend time in my studio and loves the creations that come out even if only 3-4 quilts finished a year - some finishing up old UFOs and some new. My Dear Jane took several years to finish also. But I was teaching f/t before I took advantage of DH's RR Retirement when I turned 60, (he died 7 yrs ago), then I sold my house & made a move to begin a new chapter in my life. Guess I should pay a bit more attention to what's going on here. Looks like you ladies will be done before I even get started again - but I will continue to plod along.[ATTACH=CONFIG]591883[/ATTACH]
